Overview
The Cult of the Seventh Woe are a Dark Eldar Wych Cult that is led by the Succubus Amelica Theskis. They are allied with the Kabal of the Poisoned Tongue and aided them in their raid on the Imperial hive Alarum.[1]
At one point, the Cult invaded the Khornate world of Gladius, garrisoned by World Eaters, in search of a challenge. The Wyches fought their way to the World Eaters' fang-lined fighting pits, where they engaged the Marines in duels that were faster and more vicious than almost any others that the planet's Daemon Prince rulers had ever seen before. Ultimately, most of the Wyches and the defenders alike perished in the fighting. However, Khorne was pleased by the display of carnage, and sent a rain of blood that resurrected the slain combatants. The Cult and Chaos Marines developed a bond of respect afterwards, and later joined forces in an invasion known as the Great Blood Wager of Anathema Quartus.[2]
